In this class, graduating seniors from the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering work in multidisciplinary teams to design, build, and test prototypes for real world applications. Students apply theoretical background in topics related to design, manufacturing, and business/entrepreneurial topics proposed by experts in industry and academia. Their efforts are showcased at an end-of-semester Capstone Design Expo with awards and prizes distributed to the best design concept. Past industry sponsors have received innovative solutions to their challenging design problems, resulting in enormous cost savings and increasing profitability. http://www.mecapstone.gatech.edu/ For more information, please contact Dr. Amit S. Jariwala ([email protected]; 404-894-3931) Sponsorship Benefits Branding/visibility: - Sponsor advertisement within Invention Studio, on course materials, and at the Capstone Design Expo (with over 6,000 attendees) Semester long recruitment: - Your design/engineering team can work closely with a team of four to six graduating seniors for the duration of the semester.

Sponsorship Benefits

Branding/visibility:- Sponsor advertisement within Invention Studio, on course

materials, and at the Capstone Design Expo (with over 6,000 attendees)

Semester long recruitment: - Your design/engineering team can work closely with a team of

four to six graduating seniors for the duration of the semester. Sponsors also receive direct recruiting opportunities by serving as panel judges at the end-of-semester Capstone Design Expo

Low cost skunkworks R&D: - A “best effort” solution to your challenge is designed, built and

tested by students under the guidance of a faculty mentor during a semester. Sponsors typically receive a final project report and prototype at the end of the term

Sponsorship Requirements

- Project description

- Designated technical mentor for point-of-contact with sponsoring company

- $10,000 donation that helps to cover course expenses for a semester which may include: Subvention fee, course infrastructure support, team

presentations and reports, cash prizes, support for materials and services costs for prototype fabrication for student projects, and hosting of the Capstone Design Expo (advertising, refreshments, and audio/visual rental)

Considered the largest machining facility on campus, the George W. Woodruff School’s Montgomery Machining Mall provides space and tools for students to learn and to explore fabrication techniques in order to stretch their creativity and obtain the skills critical for modern product design and innovation. The Machining Mall also provides safety and operational training on equipment, assists in design/fabrication of research and academic projects, and provides expert guidance with the design of prototype mechanical devices for course projects.

The Invention Studio is the nation’s largest student-run makerspace, open to all of Georgia Tech. By promoting an ethic of responsibility, safety, and community ownership, the Invention Studio provides students with the resources for designing, prototyping, and sharing ideas through workshops, vendor networks, experienced guidance and access to cutting edge machines, while creating an environment for students to explore and to develop unconventional ideas into reality. Prototyping Instructors (student volunteers) lead other students in the use and maintenance of the space, and are on hand to train students and help with projects. The Studio provides access to a wide variety of prototyping and fabrication tools, like electronic workbenches, 3D printers/scanners, metal forming tools, wood shop tools, laser and waterjet cutters.
